Explanation 1 to the said entry states that such supply can take place at canteen, mess, cafeteria of an institution such as school, college, hospitals etc. On the other hand, Notification No. 12\/2017-Central Tax (Rate), Sl. No. 66 (a) exempts services provided by an educational institution to its students, faculty and staff. There is no conflict between the two entries. Entries in Notification No. 11\/2017-Central Tax (Rate) prescribing GST rates on service have to be read together with entries in exemption Notification No. 12\/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017.
